First full day in Port Moody

Well, I read Jen's account of our fist day, and I agree that it did rain, especially in the afternoon and early evening......
(You have to remember though that even though it was raining it wasn't cold, so the weather doesn't put an end to all outside activities. Think about the days you've spent at our house when it was snowing all day, or the wind was blowing a hundred miles an hour all day, it's usually so cold and miserable that all outside activities are automatically cancelled, and a long day is spent cooped up in the house.)
Back to our day. We slept in and played the tourists, we got up about 8:30 and found out that the continental breakfast ended at 9:00, so I had to hurry down and get us muffins and orange juice before they locked the doors to the eating area.
We finally left the room about 10:00 or after and went of course to a Home Sense store or something like that. Then we went to Dan and Jens, where we all piled into their van and went to IKEA,(minus Dan who went to work for the morning). Bev got a couple of things there, and Dan joined us about 12:45 and we had lunch at IKEA, hotdogs and pop and cinnamon buns.
The men and boys went home in the van and played Mario on the Wii for a couple of hours (it was raining cats and dogs by then), and the women and Madisson went to Superstore for milk (and an excuse to get away from the menfolk).
We all went to the movies for the matinee at 4:30 and we saw "Rango". Not really what we expected, more of a teenager to adult cartoon movie, I think we were about half the audience.
Had hamburgers and all the fixins for supper at Jen and Dan's, and spent the evening watching tv and the kids going hyper.
All in all a pretty good day with grandkids who seemed thrilled to have us around (it got them out of school), looking forward to Friday!!!!!(Theres no clouds in the sky yet this morning compared to yesterday.....)
Bev thinks I'm writing to much.....
